New informed consent obligations for general insurance brokers will take effect on 10 July 2025. These obligations were introduced in response to recommendations made under the Quality of Advice Review and represent a significant change for brokers who provide personal advice to retail clients.
Why You Should Attend:
From the commencement date, brokers who provide personal advice to retail clients will be required to obtain their client's informed consent before receiving commission or monetary benefit in connection with the sale or issuing of certain general insurance, life insurance and consumer credit insurance products.
